I personally did not have an issue with how the Gauntlet match ended, with the arrival of The Undertaker and the confrontation with AJ Styles, of course. There were so many advertisements about The Undertaker, that the audience knew that this would happen, a lot before it actually did.
What I did have an issue with is the fact that R-Truth scored a victory over Bobby Lashley, who was being touted as a challenger for Brock Lesnar as well as Andrade, who is the United States Champion. The way the pin was executed was also suspect, and I genuinely wonder if it was a punishment from WWE towards Andrade, considering his recent wellness policy violation, meaning that he is not in the good graces of the company.
The only reason I have an issue with the overall way that this match went is because R-Truth did not win it and chances are that he will remain in the comedy mid-card role for a long time now, making these pinfalls entirely meaningless indeed.
